Well, if I went to the meeting I will repeat that I was getting better on three days of working each week, but then they switched me to a two day week, on the two days of lowest staffing, days I specifically told them I could not handle. I spent hours on my feet, which was not the WC doctor's recommendation, I literally could not walk after a month of it.

I have the email in which I protested that the schedule would make me worse. I guess it doesn't matter.

My big concern is that I believe the CRPS has spread. I think it is in my face, my tongue, my hands, forearms, my stomach.

Also, insurance. Since I am 65 I am eligible for Medicare. I guess I will sign up for it, along with additional coverage. I can not allow myself to fall into a gap of no coverage with a brain aneurysm.

Sorry to hear of your bad news. Even if you know it going to happen making it final is often not easy. I do hope you take any and all steps to protect yourself in the process. Lots of feelings can come with the loss of a job and I hope you will take care of yourself with all of that as well. You already have so much going on with your health and it sounds like now possibly even more. Take very good care. Let us know if there is anything we can do. Always here to listen~mac

Sorry to hear about this. Mama Mac is right, That has got to raise a lot of feelings, many of which may be unpleasant. I hope though that perhaps this an opportunity for one less stressor and might allow you to focus more on your recovery without the concerns about how the job is affecting you and your foot.

Sign up for the Medicare as soon as you can. There is a limited window in which they will allow enrollment.

Sending hugs,
